About Us

We are sisters, wives, daughters, mothers, Jesus lovers, coffee abusers, obsessers of all things DIY, design and decor related.
Most of what you'll see here are ways to live inexpensively, and how we put those into practice with our constant need to renovate houses and find less expensive ways to make just about anything.
We have large families and not so large salaries, so houses must come big and inexpensive, and made beautiful as we go, turning what most would see as trash, into treasure.
Thanks for stopping by, stay awhile and make yourself at home. I hope you enjoy our ideas.
